Let's make India first.

While everybody is talking about the elections and which government would come and about how is congress better or bjp and about how AAP would do things, something happened the other day which led to a question.
A few days back, late Saturday morning , I got up later than usual and there was no milk at home. I cribbed about the fact that I forgot to take milk and about how bad the day had started. I read the newspaper and found it full of articles related to AAP and elections and what not. And like any other normal Indian, I started finding faults in one govt or the other and started saying to myself that its the governments fault that India is not progressing and that everyone is corrupt etc.
Then finally with a heavy heart, cribbing about my routine, Indian system and what not , I started from home to get milk. I put up in a flat in semi-urban area with some slums around.. that afternoon children of the low income  localities were dressed up and were going to some school. By chance my eyes fell on a little boy and I noticed that he was going very very slow. Then I saw, he was all dressed up but his right foot was twisted. He was having difficulty in walking, but still he was walking with a smile without any help because he wanted to go to school.
I had tears in my eyes and pride for that boy who wanted to study.
How many of us have cribbed about studying.. I think almost everyone! That time I realised that I was comparing governments and finding faults,etc but what have I done for India's progress? You might say that we pay taxes and we do our jobs and increase country's revenue. But, isn't that because we are self centred? Have we ever cared about what are we doing? I think honest answer would be no!
In that boy I found hope.. I realised that no matter how much we care about other things , because of such beings as that boy, India will someday be developed!
Also, I feel its time, instead of talking about which party would make us pay less taxes or which offers us more benefits, we should think about India first!
Jai hind.
